Hi Mark,

 

Welcome to the world of yoga. When I first started, I simply attended the

classes - and let my body go as far as it is ready. I use my breathe to gauge

where I am at with myself on any given day.

 

With regard to daily practice - I think you will ultimately need to decide how

structured you want to be. I practice daily meditateion where I sit and

practice my pranayamas (breathing). You may want to pick up a ypoga book at the

local bookstore and investigate your journey from there. Yoga, as with life, is

all about the journey - so take your time, breathe it in, sink into it (pain or

joy) and don't be in rush to get there...

 

Believe it or not, yoga is about letting go - and a practice of mind over

matter. Yoga would only enhance the other activities that you do, not take away

from them.

 

My Warmest, Evelyn

Good morning (it's morning somewhere right?),

 

I've taken a beginner's ashtanga class at Yoga On High in Columbus OH

and will take a full series class next term. I'm wondering two

things, how does one build up a daily practice? The full series is

too much and so I do as much as I can each day. Does anyone have a

recommendation here? Also, I've been an runner, swimmer and biker

for many years, is this type of activity counter productive in any

way from an ashtanga point of view?

 

Namaste,

 

Mark
